The teams have already submitted their list of player for this season. The draft is coming up soon. Transfers such as
Shahid Afridi as already been done.
Multan Sultans has been added for this season. This is already notable, it is not too soon.

Yeah, pretty much it is. You're in breach of
WP:CRYSTAL and
WP:TOOSOON. You're speculating on something that might or might not happen. It probably will, so wait until the end of January when there's going to be more known about what might actually happen. Once you're there perhaps it might be a good idea to get some decent sources as well.

No. I am not. Would you say the same about
Super_Bowl_LIII? There are plenty of references. I have added two. There is no speculating going on. Everything in the article is verified. Event itself is notable.

a) yes, I would say the same thing; b) this is a team article, not the Super Bowl. There's a slight difference of scale.

I'd say a redirect here seems the most sensible approach. This is in line with the consensus which was established last year before the 2017 season. That consensus was reached after discussion with several editors and, I think, included some discussion on the project page. It can wait. Honestly it can. We don't need to try to predict the future.

The consensus when this was discussed last year was that this was way too soon - we went with February as being the best time. It was discussed and dealt with in a variety of ways, including through edit summaries. Those discussions were never formalised in one place, but early and spurious creation of articles around the league has been a major problem in the past -
this discussion and
this one gives a flavour. That's why I've suggested some ground rules on the project page to formalise the sorts of things which were discussed.

Neither of those apply to me. Every thing I have added has been verified. I am not making articles years in advance, only after information is starting to noted in the news. Try again.

The general feeling seems to be that this far in advance is too far. For example, there's an AfD on the block right now regarding a team season article created for the IPL 2018 season
